2016 Volkswagen Beetle vs 2016 MINI Cooper

One of the most beloved cars in automotive history is the Volkswagen Beetle. With each new generation, consumers have fell in love with its iconic shape and easy maneuverability. By paying respect to the past with its retro-inspired design while possessing state-of-the-art automotive technology, the Beetle is still going strong after all these years. Another iconic compact car is the MINI Cooper. Let's see how the two models stack up in this 2016 Volkswagen Beetle vs 2016 MINI Cooper comparison.

In terms of performance, the 2016 Beetle easily outmuscles the 2016 MINI Cooper. It comes with a robust 1.8-liter turbo 4-cylinder engine, delivering an impressive 170 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. In comparison, the 1.5-liter turbo 3-cylinder in the MINI Cooper only manages 134 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. Additionally, for even more impressive performance, the Beetle is also offered in a powerful R-Line model.
